Saci Day (Dia do Saci) is celebrated on October 31, the same day as Halloween. The date was created with the intention of rescuing and valuing the folklore of our country, promoting the national culture and Brazilian traditions. Saci Day was created in 2003, through Federal Bill no. 2,762, proposed by Congressman Aldo Rebelo. However, only later this date was made official.
Saci-pererê is one of the most emblematic figures of Brazilian folklore and has both indigenous and African influences.
In 2013, the Education and Culture Commission drafted Federal Bill No. 2,479, which establishes October 31 as Saci Day.
